I'm doing 38 things
Four and a half stars. I’m a libertarian, still not sure how I feel about libertarian paternalism.

Loved it. 4 3/4 stars. Deducting 1/4 of a star for the horribly inconcise, ridiculously long John Galt speech (60 pages) and the fact that the book is 1000+ pages long.
Meh. Assigned reading for class. Burned through 150 pages in four days. Would have been faster but the subject matter was kinda dull. Decent chapter on linguistics but there are many better books written on the subject. A very lazy treatment of the subject matter for someone who otherwise would not seek out better.
